FC Internazionale Milano 2-1 Urawa Red Diamonds
Group E | Lumen Field
Urawa Red Diamonds and their fervent travelling support were in front for more than an hour of this contest, but two late Inter goals – including a stoppage-time winner – completed the turnaround and sparked the Nerazzurri’s campaign into life.
Mamelodi Sundowns FC 3-4 Borussia Dortmund
Group F | TQL Stadium
Dortmund initially fell behind in this Cincinnati showdown but fought back with four unanswered goals to seemingly romp to victory. The Sundowns showed plenty of spirit, however, and clawed two goals back but fell just short of their German counterparts.
Fluminense FC 4-2 Ulsan HD
Group F | MetLife Stadium
Just hours after Sundowns and Dortmund played out a seven-goal thriller, Fluminense and Ulsan HD produced an instant classic of their own. The Tigers roared into a half-time lead here, but the Brazilian giants put on a show in the second to run out worthy winners in New York New Jersey.
FC Porto 4-4 Al Ahly FC
Group A | MetLife Stadium
These two sides entered the Group A finale knowing they had to win to stand a chance of progressing. What followed was a barmy eight-goal thriller which had pretty much everything, except a winning goal.
